| 1 | The Gold Room Bursts with Gould: A Drama | F. L. Light |
| Jay Gould sought to yoke a corner on the gold market in August and September, 1869. His endeavor came to a head on September 24, a day known as the Gold Panic, or Black Friday. Many merchant houses, banks, and brokerages thereafter failed because of the flagrant volatility in prices. This drama presents the acts and thoughts of Gould, his partner, Jim Fisk, and their brokers during the panic. |
